I guess it depends what you like and what's available in the area you live or work. When i was in Windsor Ontario a few years back all i could get was Tim Hortons. It was stale, old tasting luke warm liquid that tried to pass as coffee but failed miserably. In the UK its even worse they use a huge amount of instant coffee, " Gold Blend" used to be one of the most popular when i lived there.
Say what you like about StarBucks but they did get the formula right but spoilt the market for real coffee, i mean what the fuck is a Venti Mocha why not say large ? Anyway they did a great job at spreading a cheap bitter substandard coffee all over America and convincing people it was great. If you ever get the chance to try one of the independent speciality coffee houses like my local Cafe Joie in Mission Beach you will taste what a good coffee should taste like. Not every one will like the fresh roasted, fresh brewed flavor of gourmet coffee but you can at least give it a try. But dont for one moment think Star bucks or Tim Hortons is what coffee should taste like, its not..
